The combination of financial fortune and Title IX made the women’s lacrosse team a reality.
From the time Butler athletics announced the addition of women’s lacrosse last October, the team gained a locker room, uniforms, a turf field, a coaching staff and 33 players. The evolution might seem rapid if not for those two factors set in motion long before October.
The women on the team are direct beneficiaries of Title IX, the actions Butler took to meet the requirements of the law and other successful athletic programs on campus.
